Tyla never misses on the red carpet

Last month, Tyla dipped into the Gucci archives for the ‘Oscars of the fashion’, the CFDA awards in New York City. The lace mini-dress and green hot-pant combo is pulled from Gucci’s S/S 1996 collection, during Tom Ford’s golden years as creative director of the Italian house.

Fresh off the catwalk, stylist Lee Trigg pulled an Area SS25 look for Tyla’s MTV VMA appearance in September this year. The cheeky, vibrant green underwear was a last-minute addition to the look from NYC brand Reeno.

Both Tyla and Ice Spice opted for 2004 archive Versace at the BET awards in June. Styled by Katie Qian, the black halter-neck discretely revealed yet another animal print moment for the star, flashing from the lining as she walked as a nod to her fans, ‘Tigers’.

One of the most talked about looks of the 2024 Met Gala was Tyla’s statuesque Balmain dress. For her inaugural Met, creative director Olivier Rousteing concocted a gown made from three types of sand, mixed with micro crystal studs. Not only did the star have to be physically lifted up the Met steps, but Rousteing even took a pair of scissors to it, transforming it into a mini dress so that Tyla could move more freely later in the night.

Tyla made history again at this year’s Grammys, taking home the first ever award for Best African Music Performance for her song, Water. She won whilst wearing custom Versace, as did Best New Artist winner Victoria Monet.

She may have gone as Halle Berry in The Flintstones for Halloween this year, but it wasn’t the first time that Tyla has opted for Stone Age couture. At Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy gala earlier this year, in the run-up to the main event, Tyla wore New York brand Area once again.

It’s almost been a whole year but we still haven’t forgotten Tyla’s wet look from 2023’s GQ Men of the Year Awards. A reference to her own song (the viral hit responsible for her almost instant global fame) Tyla and Katie Qian looked to London-based Greek designer Di Petsa for the perfect ‘water’ dress.
